Chapter 1300: An unnecessary move (1)
âAre they the only ones?â Xia qingchen asked.
What his father wanted to see the most was his mother, who he had been waiting for twenty years, and not his uncle or cousin.
According to the agreement made back then, Xia qingchen would release his mother, who was under house arrest, after he defeated Yu Qingyang, allowing them to reunite.
Now, it seemed that he didnât.
Xia Yuanâs expression flickered with a hint of desolation and disappointment, but he quickly concealed it.
He wrapped his arms around Xia qingchenâs arm, a strong smile on his face. your uncle and cousin are willing to come. Itâs enough to show that they have acknowledged me. This is already very good.
Was it really good?
In truth, he was probably consoling Xia qingchen.
His father didnât want Xia qingchen to feel disappointed. After all, he had once risked his life in order to win the bet and won by a narrow margin.
He could be disappointed, but he couldnât let his son feel disheartened.
Xia qingchen had seen through the ages, so how could he not understand what Xia Yuan was thinking? he spoke unhurriedly, ââFather, back then, what was uncleâs stance on the engagement between you and mother?â
He didnât want to pay any more attention to the Huang familyâs Affairs, but since the other party had come to find him, he had to get a simple understanding.
âYour uncle, he ⊠Of course, youâll support me and your mother.â Xia Yuan laughed.
However, he could not hide the reluctance in his smile.
Xia Yuan had endured silently for many years, and he no longer showed his emotions on his face. However, he couldnât even conceal this trace of reluctance. It was obvious what his uncleâs stand was back then.
âEn, Where are they now?â Xia qingchen didnât expose him and spoke slowly.
Xia Yuan took out a Messenger pigeon and opened it for Xia qingchen to see.
The letter said that they had already arrived at the immortal devil city and would soon enter Xia qingchenâs fief.
The signature date was one day ago.
It was about time to reach the capital of Azurite in a dayâs time.
qingchen, come with me to the city gate to welcome them. We canât delay any longer. Xia Yuan placed great importance on the arrival of his uncle and cousin.
Xia qingchen put down the letter and glanced at the White snow in the sky, sighing slightly. âAlright, wait at the South Gate.â
Stepping on the snow, Xia qingchen and Xia Yuan walked side by side toward the southern city gate.
Along with them were the guards of honor that had come to colored glaze capital, which were specially used to welcome distinguished guests.
At the South City gate.
The heavy snow continued to fall year after year, and the wind returned to the snow flow, blocking peopleâs vision.
Xia Yuan paced back and forth at the city gate with his hands behind his back. He was both nervous and perturbed. Perhaps he didnât know what to say to the Huang clan after being separated for twenty years.
âFather, donât be anxious.â Xia qingchen looked at his father, who was wearing thin clothes, and felt a sour feeling in his heart.
If he didnât help, Xia Yuan would probably still be a small clan head who was in dire straits in lone Cloud City.
âItâs fine. Iâm not in a hurry.â Xia Yuan grinned, but his eyes were filled with anxiety.
Xia qingchen silently took out three pieces of crushed stones and condensed them into a palm-sized round stone plate, placing it in Xia Yuanâs arms. âPut it in your arms.â
This item was a divine item passed down from the wuyan priest tribe in lounan. It was used for defense.
After Xia qingchen infused the divine item with divinity, he completely activated the might of the divine item.
Not only could it resist the damage of external objects, but it could also protect it from cold and heat.
âGood girl.â Xia Yuanâs body in the eastern region was much more relaxed. He stroked Xia qingchenâs head with a gratified expression.âYou are the greatest pride of your mother and I! If your uncle were to see you, he would be proud of you as well.â
Xia qingchen smiled lightly. He stood in the snow and accompanied Xia Yuan as they waited silently.
Time passed by slowly.
Half a day passed, and he still didnât see his uncle and cousin.
Even if they were riding the most ordinary demonic beast, it would be enough to reach the veluriyam capital from the immortal devil city. Moreover, they shouldnât be ordinary people.
âI should have thought of it.â Xia qingchen shook the falling snow on his shoulder and spoke indifferently.
They had sent a letter half a month before they came, and they sent another letter when they arrived at the immortal devil city.
The two messages were obviously to remind them to welcome them.
Therefore, they must have been unhurried along the way.
âFather, you can go back first. Iâll wait here alone.â Xia qingchen looked at his father, whose head was covered in snow, and felt pity in his heart.
The Huang family really knew how to defile the Xia family!
In this world of Ice and snow, a person with low cultivation base had to wait for half a day.
âWhat nonsense are you talking about? your uncle is coming. How can I wait at home?â we canât let your motherâs family see us as a joke. They will say that we donât know our manners. Do you understand? â Xia Yuan rebuked her.
Werenât they the ones who didnât know manners?
Xia qingchen was silent and continued to wait by her side.
Another half a day passed, and the sky gradually turned dark. The divinity within the divine stone had almost been completely consumed. Xia Yuan once again felt the waves of coldness, and he couldnât help but sneeze.
He consoled Xia qingchen, who had a dark expression on his face. qingchen, donât be anxious. Theyâll be here soon.
A thousand miles away.
In the vast white snow, an antique purple-gold wooden carriage, driven by three Qilin-like demon beasts covered in flames, was slowly approaching veluriyam city.
In the carriage.
In the warm light, a refined middle-aged man in a long robe was playing chess slowly. Opposite him was a young man who looked somewhat similar to him.
The young man had a dignified appearance. Regardless of his figure or facial features, he bore some resemblance to Xia qingchen and was exceptionally handsome.
If one didnât look carefully, it was possible that they might be mistaken.
âFather, weâre almost there. Why donât we speed up the beast carriage so that my uncle who Iâve never met will not wait for a long time.â The young man said as he placed a white piece down and sipped his hot tea.
A white bone hairpin was embedded in the middle-aged manâs hair. He looked at the chessboard and said indifferently, ââSo what if we let him wait a little longer? Iâm giving him face by coming to see him.â
The young man laughed and placed another white chess piece, ââI mean, we should at least pretend that weâre in a hurry.â
The elegant middle-aged man put down the black chess piece in his hand and disinterestedly put it down.âSo What if I donât? How can he, Xia Yuan, have any objections?â
âThatâs true. Iâm sure that uncle has been waiting for our arrival for a long time.â The young man leaned against the wall of the carriage, his eyes revealing a trace of hidden contempt.
This father and son duo wasnât anyone else. They were Xia qingchenâs uncle and cousin!
âBut weâre not here to find him.â The middle-aged man said.
The young man shook his head. our Huang family will not accept a small figure like him. Unless a miracle happens to his son. He has a strong bloodline of the Huang familyâs ancestors.
âIf thatâs the case, heâll still be able to gain the recognition of the Huang family because of his son,â
Thatâs right, they didnât come here to see Xia Yuan. They came to see Xia qingchen.
âBut father, that cousin of mine isnât even a member of the Huang family. Why does Grandpa want to test his divine bloodline?â The young man frowned.
Regarding this matter, he obviously had some complaints.
no matter what, he has the bloodline of the Huang family, â the elegant middle-aged man said. if the bloodline of the gods is detected, itâs fine to give him the title of the Huang family.
âIf not, thatâs even better. From now on, the Xia father and son will no longer have any relationship with our Huang family.â
The young man sighed slightly,âsigh, what an unnecessary move!â The child of my aunt and an ordinary person, do you think he can be tested for the bloodline of the gods?â
The elegant middle-aged man said indifferently, â of course not. However, we left the sky mainly because we were invited to the gathering of the emperorâs tomb in the human world. The matter here is on the way. It will just waste a little time.
The young man clenched his fist, and a hazy moon realm radiance circulated. âIf you have this little time, you might as well cultivate.â
